Lenovo VIBE P1 Review: Price, Specs, Pros and Cons

Review of Lenovo VIBE P1 at a Glance:-

The battery backup is one of most concern topic in
Smartphone specification and Lenovo try to make a device that can give long lasting
battery with quite good configuration without making load over the pocket of
customers, here are other features in Lenovo VIBE P1 that can attract a group of
customer such as Snapdragon 615 octa-core 1.5 GHz processor, 5.5 inches
display, 13 and 5 MP camera, 4G LTE support, 32 GB ROM with Ext. SD support of
128 GB and 5000 mAh battery. Here we will have Short review, Pros and Cons of Lenovo VIBE P1.

They have made a candy bar design with smooth corners the
phone builds on the aluminium metal where Platinum & Graphite Grey colour
obviously looks classy. For some people 9.9 mm thickness with weight of 189
grams may be bulkier but you have to note this fact that phone is metal built
with huge 5000 mAh battery that increases its weight.

Screen on this Smartphone is much crisper than many of its
counterpart devices, 5.5 inches display with 1080 x 1920 pixels resolutions and
401 ppi display density makes its display more enough than good, by cutting the
area for bezels phone has 72.1% screen-to-body ratio. The experience of watching
your photos and favourite videos in the device will be fun.

The old phrase “nothing is perfect” sits better in this
device for its camera. Actually it’s not a bad camera but your expectation in
13 MP camera from a reputed “Lenovo” brand will be higher and it was not up to
that quality. The most of Smartphone camera perform well in daylight same apply
for its camera; the clear detailed photos can be obtained in day time
photography may seems noisy when the ambient luminosity go down. 5 MP camera is
just enough to capture some decent photos.

Nowadays most people are habitual of loading their
Smartphone with heavy games and apps, that is not possible without a strong
CPU; with Qualcomm MSM8939 Snapdragon 615 octa-core core processor clocking on
1.5 GHz speed; this SOC configurations is coupled with 2 GB RAM. We loved its
smooth performance till loading the game (Asphalt 8 and Clash of Clan), some
frames are dropped while running the Asphalt and yeah it heats up but up to the
acceptable level.

We are the HUGE fan of its HUGE 5000 mAh battery which last
longer nearly for 2 days in mixed use. And there is movable button located at
left side of the device to enable the battery saving mode which may further
enhance the battery backup.
